Oh man, we are about to have another teeny tiny person on our hands this month! I’m currently 36 weeks and looking down the final gauntlet of this pregnancy.
In true second child fashion, I’m almost done with this pregnancy and I still haven’t written my pregnancy recaps. Oops. Sorry baby.
Here’s how things went in the second trimester for baby number two.
Second Trimester Recap (NWBlonde Baby #2)
Morning Sickness Let Up
Thank the good lord by the time I was four months into this pregnancy, my nausea finally disappeared completely. It was a rough few months but we managed to get through it.
Energy Came Back
Once I wasn’t puking (or thinking about puking), my energy came back. Which was a good thing because being pregnant with kids is a whole other ball game from your first pregnancy when you can nap at will. I wouldn’t say that I was back 100% but it felt like a monumental shift from where I was in the first trimester
Finding Out the Gender
It was so exciting to find out that baby #2 is a GIRL! We waited until the anatomy scan to find out which was fun. Teddy was able to come with us to the anatomy scan then we went out to breakfast, which is the same thing (and place) Andrew and I did after Teddy’s anatomy scan two years ago.
That’s all I can think of that really happened during my second trimester. Other than slowly growing and looking more pregnant every week, it was pretty smooth sailing which I’m grateful for.
Thanks for following along with this pregnancy. Now that it’s coming to an end I feel like it was quick but in the day-to-day, I’m ready to be done and have her here. Now let’s see if I can get my thrid trimester recap written and posted before she arrives later this month
